Fake Mono...again?

[starrylites]

Okay, so for you guys that were following me two years ago, you might remember when I had to drop a class and be a part time student because I was having the worst time staying awake. After about six doctor's visits, they were able to determination, "It's a virus, and it acts like Mono, has all the physical symptoms of Mono, but your immune system is fully functional except for this virus...and we don't know what virus it is." If you'd attempted to talk to me online at all the last couple of days, you'll know that's been difficult. Monday I got 7 1/2 hours of sleep, last night 8 hours, took two naps yesterday, and I've already had two today...and it's barely 12:30.

If I've caught the Some Virus again I think I might scream. This would be the third time...it screwed up my senior year of HS, screwed up my Sophomore year of college, and if I've got it again...I will scream.

I hate this because I feel completely healthy, but I can't write, I can't read, I can't concentrate on Photoshop, I can't concentrate on Final Cut (not even my new toy!!), and yeah...I suppose it could be depression, but I don't think so. I would need a reason to be depressed, and the family health issues isn't enough to drive me into depression. Took a whole lot more than that the first time. No, I really don't think it is.

On that note, I'm gonna go lay down. Hopefully I'll find the energy to do my Hebrew translations.

Aw man! I remember having that winter semester of 2004... that was so terrible. And I've had it since then, too, I think... and I keep wondering if I have it again. But I think right now it might be more due to thyroid issues and having a constant cold/flu/whatever... But then, Some Virus...

I like how my doctor (at BYU health cente) called it Some Virus, too. WTF. It's terrible. Feeling so listless and stuff... But it's not so much depression, because it's not as passionate or dangerous. It's just... kind of disinterest but being okay, but so tired, but not okay. o_o I dunno how to describe it.

I am sorry for you. ;_; It's terrible.

I think we might've seen the same doctor that dubbed it Some Virus...cuz at home he called it Fake Mono. Some Virus sounds so much more...aggravating.

Which, FYI, I won't be at writing group. I have a Hebrew study group :( But I'll miss everybody!

Yeah. Some Virus is the most frustrating name ever. Perfect for whatever it is that you/we/whoever has it. MAN!
